Dutch Graphic Design is a book for the aficionado of good typographical taste. Including page after page of designs that broke the existing rules, it shows Dutch designers refashioning typography from its bourgeois roots into a tool of socialist provocation (functionalist to the last full stop), and then latterly as a more plural and free-spirited medium that stopped at nothing, especially as it moved into the digital era.
